Bandung - Day 3 (3rd March 2006)

Pagi2 dah ade call dari receptionist. Rupanya nak tanya ' breakfastnya mau di antar ke bilik bu?' Wah.. mestila mau.. senang nya makan sambil siapkan budak2 . Lepas tu every morning kitorang call mintak breakfast.. haha..

Agenda hari ketiga - beli kasut & bag. Before keluar dah siap tanya receptionist pompuan kat hotel tu, tempat2 utk shopping kasut dgn bag dgn brg2 budak2.

'"apa itu kasut?" ..
ler rupanya tak paham soalan kitorang. Diorang sebut kasut = sepatu , bag = tas.
" itu sepatu & tas ada di Donatello"
"barangan kanak2 ada dijual di Lavie, Jalan Imam Bonjol" huh? what a name..

Actually bahasa kita lebih kurang je dgn diorang.. maybe sbb dlm bandar kot. Cuma sebutan agak baku & vocab diorang kurang dari kita.

So naik angkutan turun kat Donatello. Kedai2 ni dan yg sebelumnya kitorang pegi semuanya kat jalan yg sama - Jalan Dago - which is satu row je dgn hotel kitorang. Actually berderet2 Factoty Outlet kat sepanjang Jalan Dago ni. Tapi kalu nak menapak mau berpeluh gak dgn budak2 lagi..


Depan kedai Donatello -tempat shopping kasut & bag

Dalam kedai Donatello & hasil shopping

Abis shopping budak2 dah kelaparan. So kitorang lunch mi kocok & mi bakso. Sedap gak. Pastu ade org jual2 buah strawberry & raspberry. Kitorang try beli raspberry 2 kotak kecik = Rp 25 000 = RM 10. Macam mahal je.. tah2 kena katuk lagi.. So first time makan fresh raspberry.. memang sedap & manis.

Yummy raspberry


Mi kocok yg dah kena makan & mi baso


Slurrppp...

After lunch jalan2 kat kedai dekat2 situ je.. FO Blossom, FO Glamour & beberapa lagi.. lupa dah nama kedai. Then jalan kaki ke Lavie - kedai brg budak2. Budak2 dah penat so kena dukung. Gile penat mama & babah.. dah berat rupanya anak2 aku nih.. sampai kedai terus cari gendong budak..

Ni gendong budak kitorang beli kat Lavie around RM20. Haikal cakap "nak dukung bee" kalau die mintak nak gendong.. macam baby kanggaru..

Kitorang beli satu je gendong ni. Bila time nak dukung berebut2 la pulak budak 2 org tuh.. adoi la..

Hasil pada hari ke3

Bandung - Day 2 (2nd March 2006)

Kat Bandung waktu dia sejam awal dari Malaysia. So pagi turun breakfast around 8 AM, kat cafe hotel. Makan kat hotel Bandung tak macam kat Malaysia. Kalu kat Malaysia buffet style makan sampai tak muat perut. Kat hotel kitorang kenaorder.. tu pun ade 3 options aje - nasik goreng , roti or bubur with air teh/kopi.

Our first destination for the day was HSBC , nak mengeluarkan ongkos utk shopping seterusnya. Mula2 naik angkutan sampai ke Pasar Baru. Pastu naik beca ke HSBC. Gile kesian tengok org kayuh beca angkut kitorang. Tu pun kitorang amik 2 beca. Budak2 suka jakun gile naik beca, berangin jek.



Pi balik ke Pasar Baru, beca charge kitorang Rp 50 000 = RM20 utk dua beca. Huh ? rasa macam kena katuk je. Kat pasar Baru terkenal dgn tempat jual tudung2, kain batik & telekung. Kira macam kedai2 kat jln TAR la. Borong sikit je this time.

Tgh hari balik ke Hotel sbb budak2 dah penat. Bagi diorang tido dulu pastu ptg shopping utk round yg kedua kat Merdeka Arcade. Lupa nak amik gambar hasil shopping sbb balik bilik dah kepenatan..

Bandung - Day 1 (1st March 2006)

Flight dari KLIA depart at 7:35 am. So mlmnya dah siap call teksi utk pick up at 5:30 am. :O . So angkut je budak2 tgh tido, sampai KLIA at 6:10, terus je beratur utk check in sbb dah ramai org. Haikal yg asalnya ngantuk terus je excited sbb nak naik 'erofen' - dalam bahasa Haikal. Lepas solat terus je rushing ke departure hall, ngam2 je masa.

So flight amik masa 2 jam, budak2 tido je dlm flight, lega sikit. Sbb tak breakfast lagi, kitorang order je nasik lemak dlm flight. Gile mahal nasik lemak secebis je dah RM8. Tapi sebab nak alas perut beli satu je share 2 org.


Amik gambar setibanya di Bandung. Gerimis sikit2.


Dlm bilik hotel. Budak2 lapar so bagi makan serunding daging. Macam makan nasik..

Touchdown kat Bandung, terus amik teksi (Rp 35 000 = RM 14 ) utk check in at Hotel Karmila, yg dah di book through phone je. Tapi nasib malang sikit dapat driver yg tak terer sampai sesat2 nak carik Hotel. 3x pusing jalan yg sama.. 3x tanya2 org tepi jalan.. hampeh sungguh. Nasib baik bayar flat rate je.

Lepas simpan barang, terus cergas jalan2 di sekitar Hotel. Lunch kat Pizza Hut, around RM 20. Waittress kat sini sume cun2. Terkagum sekejap kitorang.. :). Actually makan2 kat Bandung is quite expensive, kalau nak dikirakan rate duit die yg murah tu.


Lunch kat pizza Hut. Spaghetti Sapi (daging lembu) die kurang sedap.

Yang best kat Bandung ni, is their public transport. Sungguh efisyen, especially kalu naik 'angkutan' - is actually a van . Angkutan ni ade route die, kira macam bas la kalu kat sini. Sentiasa ade & murah, and flat rate and bulih berenti kat mana2 je. Sekali naik sorang Rp1000 = 40 sen. Time nak suruh berenti kena cakap ' kiri kiri'. Tak sure sgt nape kena sebut tu, tapi org lain buat so kitorang ikut je la.

Kedai2 kat Bandung di panggil boutique, and sebuah2 macam rumah2 banglo kalu kat sini. So our first stop was Istana Sepatu. Beli kasut Azhar & Husna sorang sepasang. Then sebelah die ada Merdeka Arcade. Rambang mata tengok baju2 especially baju girls. Husna la yg paling untung sbb gile banyak choice baju2 yg comel2 utk die.


Ni hasil hari pertama shopping spree.

Bye bye Bandung

Baru je sampai dari Bandung.. Stories will be blogged soon..

My Baby..

You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
You'd be like Heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.

Pardon the way that I stare.
There's nothing else to compare.
The sight of you leaves me weak.
There are no words left to speak,
But if you feel like I feel,
Please let me know that it's real.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.

I love you, baby,
And if it's quite alright,
I need you, baby,
To warm a lonely night.
I love you, baby.
Trust in me when I say:
Oh, pretty baby,
Don't bring me down, I pray.
Oh, pretty baby, now that I found you, stay
And let me love you, baby.
Let me love you.

Kek Pisang

Ni resepi kek pisang requested by few opismates. Dah cuba buat 2 kali. Gerenti senang & sedap.



Bahan (A)
230 gm gula castor * or 1 cup
4 biji telur
1 sdb ovallete
1-2 titis esen pisang

Bahan (B) - ayak bersama
300 gm tepung gandum *or 2 3/4 cups
1 sdt baking powder
1 sdt soda bikarbonat

Panaskan oven at 180C
Pukul Bahan (A) sampai kembang
Masukkan Bahan (C) & whip sikit
Masukkan Bahan (B) & whip sikit
Masukkan Bahan (D) & whip sikit

Tuangkan dalam acuan kek & bakar lebih kurang 40 minit. Kalu belum masak, bakar sikit lagi. (cek dgn lidi, kalu takde melekat kira dah masak la tuh)

Note :
*Kek ni kuantiti die agak banyak, kalu bekas nak bakar kecik rasanya kena masak 2 kali. Me guna 9 x 9 inch square pan
* Kalu takde susu coklat bulih gak ganti dgn susu biasa, nanti kaler die lebih cerah & agak kurang manis
* Pisang bulih guna jenis lain, tak semestinya pisang berangan. Kalau guna pisang yg kecik eg pisang emas, kena lebihkan sikit pisangnya. Agak2 je la..

Resepi Lasagna

Ter stuck kat IDC Brickfield nih. Ingat nak balik cepat, skali ujan lebat gile kat luar.. nak pi kat kete pun takleh.. so curik masa sikit utk post resepi ni..

Requested by Nani, here goes..

Bahan A : Sos Merah

500g minced beef/ayam/ * biasa pakai ramly burger mince beef tu.. satu ketul tu cukup
1 tin tomato puree * biasa guna brand S&W, takpun lagi senang guna Campbell's Tomato & Basil
1 biji bawang besar dipotong dadu
2-3 biji bawang putih dicincang
1 tin mushroom - hiris sesuka hati
1-2 biji tomato - potong dadu
Kiub daging / ayam kalu suka
oregano
black pepper

- kalu suka byk sayur bulih tambah carrot / celery / green pepper

Tumiskan bawang besar dan bawang putih hingga naik baunya
Masukkan daging cincang, biarkan seketika
Masukkan pula tomato puree
Masukkan mushroom & tomato - ataupun sayur2 lain
Masukkan black pepper, oregano, garam dan gula secukupnya. Kacaukan sekali sekala hingga masak dan kuah agak pekat

Bahan B : Sos Putih

2 sudu butter
2-3 sudu tepung
2 cawan susu
1 cawan parutan cheese - aku guna cheddar & mozarella cheese *cheese ni suka hati nak byk ke sikit.. 1/2 cawan pun ok
sikit garam, black peper & oregano

Atas api perlahan, masak butter, then masukkan tepung, kacau rata
Masukkan susu
Agak2 mendidih masukkan garam, black pepper & oregano secukup rasa. Kalu nak rasa kena darah tinggi sila lebihkan garam :D
agak dah pekat sikit, masukkan cheese, terus tutup api, then kacau sampai cheese cair

Bahan C :

Lasagna Sheet - aku guna San Remo, instant Lasagna sheet, yg ni takyah rebus2 dulu
1 cup parutan cheese - aku guna mozarella & cheddar, kalu ade parmesan pun bulih gak kot
Bekas nak bakar - pyrex / vision / aluminium pan / bekas bakar kek

Cara2 :

a. Lapiskan lasagna sheet kat dlm bekas nak bakar tu
b. Lapiskan Sos Merah
c. Lapiskan Sos putih
d. Tabur sikit grated cheese tadi

Ulang a - d sampai abis bahan2. Biasa aku buat 2 lapis je. Lapis atas sekali mesti diakhiri dgn sos putih, pastu boleh taburkan grated cheese byk2 .

Bakar dlm oven suhu dlm 175 C dlm 30 minit. Cucuk dgn tester/ lidi utk cek sama ada lasagna sheet tu lembut ke tak. Kalu tak lembut, bakar sikit lagi sampai lembut.

Note :
Lasagna sheet ni bulih diganti dgn macaroni or pasta2 lain. Proses sama, cuma macaroni tu kena rebus sampai lembut dulu. Bakar dlm 20 minit.

Kalu ada leftover kuah spaghetti bolognaise pun boleh guna sebagai sos merah.



Okay, slamat mencuba.

Resepi Pop Corn

This recipe was requested by few opismates & Diana.

* Diana weh, bila nak start blog ko?

Easy Pop Corn Recipe

2-3 tbsp corn oil
1/2 cup corn ( biasanya main agak2 je dlm 2 genggam)
* Jagung kering ni ade jual timbang kat Carrefour. Kat billion pun ade dah siap paket2.

Cara :

Bubuh minyak jagung dlm non-stick wok. Agak2 dah panas bubuh je jagung dlm kuali tu dan tutup dgn penutup kuali. Api perlahan je. Biarkan die meletup2 sendiri sampai agak2 sume jagung dah abis meletup. Ketepikan sat.

* Jgn pakai kuali/periuk biasa, nanti die melekat & hangit. Aku dah cuba dah..
* ade org pakai microwave. Tapi aku tak penah cuba. Sape dah try pakai microwave bulih bagi feedback

Cara buat sira utk pop corn :

1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup corn syrup / liquid glucose
* Tak penah jumpa corn syrup, so substitute dgn liquid glucose - boleh beli kat kedai juai bahan2 buat kek, kat Bangi ade Yummy Bakery kat belakang Warta

Masak 3 bahan di atas sampai berbuih2, pastu campurkan dgn pop corn tadi, kacau sampai rata atas api perlahan. Kalu taknak manis sgt bulih bubuh sikit2 sira sampai sesedap rasa.

Bila dah agak2 rata, bubuh popcorn tu atas dulang & bakar sekejap dlm oven dln 3-4 minit, utk bagi crunchy.

Siap utk dimakan seisi keluarga sambil tengok Playhouse Disney Chanel.

Your Personality Is

Guardian (SJ) You are sensible, down to earth, and goal oriented. Bottom line, you are good at playing by the rules. You tend to be dominant - and you are a natural leader. You are interested in rules and order. Morals are important to you. A hard worker, you give your all at whatever you do. You're very serious, and people often tell you to lighten up. In love, you tend to take things carefully and slowly. At work, you are suited to almost any career - but you excel in leadership positions. With others, you tend to be polite and formal. As far as looks go, you are traditionally attractive. You take good care of yourself. On weekends, you tend to like to do organized activities. In fact, you often organize them!

The Three Question Personality Test

Full time house wife utk sehari..

Hari ni tak keje.. MC sbb batuk.. yehaa.. ni la untungnya berbaik2 dgn DR. senang dapat MC.. takyah susah2 mintak dia siap offer je MC.. so bersempena dapat cuti free, amik kesempatan pi pasar borong beli stok utk dapur. Balik dari Raya Haji barang2 sume abis, semalam pun order McD je untuk dinner.. tapi lembab ler service... budak2 dah tido baru dinner sampai... ceh..

How You Life Your Life

You seem to be straight forward, but you keep a lot inside. You tend to avoid confrontation and stay away from sticky situations. You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintences. You tend to dream big, but you worry that your dreams aren't attainable.

How Do You Live Your Life?
